In Europe on a cruise. The price of diesel is a tad lower than gasoline. Both about 2 Euros per liter.
Adjust that to dollars per gallon and either the Europeans are getting screwed or US getting a bargain.
Not happy in the US that diesel is higher mainly because of $0.50 Federal tax on diesel vs $0.18 tax on gasoline. I have a diesel pickup and I am not tearing up the roads that need to be repaved like the 18 wheelers are. They pay high road use tax. Make the tax on gasoline and diesel the same. And put it into a dedicated highway fund.
